My letter to the Georgia Department of Transportation
Who is in charge of installing traffic lights? Do they drive anywhere these lights go up? If they did, I would think they would put more thought into their installation.
The lights in this city are ill-timed, if timed, and likely, are not timed, turning from red to green whenever. This is probably one of the most significant contributors to traffic congestion.
Georgia DOT's solution to all traffic issues: more lights!
So my question is, what qualifications do you need, and what sort of accountability measures are standard for the people who make the traffic signal decisions. I know some downs syndrome kids and a monkey who could do a better job with this than whoever is doing it throughout Fulton and Cobb county.
Specifically though, and in all seriousness, the lights on 17th and McCaslin by Atlantic Station are absolutely unnecessary. And if they have to be there, make them smarter. They hinder through traffic on 17th, which actually has cars driving down it.
Secondly, the light on State St and North Avenue is useless. All you need is a sensor for State St traffic because otherwise, there's no reason for North Avenue to catch a red there. State St is not that busy.
Since the public you are supposed to serve can't seem to hold you accountable, please try to respect yourselves and do your very best at work. What you have been doing is haphazard and irresponsible at best.

Back in Jersey they had the civil engineering students at Rutgers and The College of New Jersey running metrics and tests on the traffic light timings all over the state. It was a well oiled machine. Don't they have engineers at Tech?
